Merry Christmas from Top MMA News

2009 was a big year for Top MMA News. Marc-Andre and myself created Top MMA News in March 2009 and in ten months we have grown to over 50,000 readers a month. There have been some hiccups but we think we are on the right track. Maybe next year we will even have a banner at the top of our site (this space for rent!).

Regardless, we at Top MMA News really appreciate everyone who visits the site and contributes to the Top MMA News community. Its incredible that we are able to cover the great sport of MMA from a Canadian perspective and people actually want to read what we have to say. As a way to say thanks, I have recently acquired a few old UFC DVDs (pre-TUF). Comment on this post with a Christmas wish to someone in the MMA community. Funniest and most original will receive a DVD in the mail (make sure you use a correct email address).

Here are our Top MMA News Christmas wishes to our Top MMA friends.
